National Cancer Survivors Day® is observed each year on the 1st Sunday in June. As Maribel mentioned, 1 in 8 women will unfortunately be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. We understand that cancer changes your life forever, but surviving cancer is something to celebrate. Cancer doesn't need to be the end of your story. We hope by listening to Maribel's testimony, it can give you hope and healing on your own journey💞
Maribel is a Travel Content Creator, Entrepreneur & 🎀Breast Cancer Survivor🎀. Despite the difficult challenges she faced, she's emerged victorious & determined to live her life to the fullest. After overcoming cancer, she began traveling to different parts of the world, immersing herself in new cultures & gaining new perspectives on life. She wants to inspire other women to see that there is life after cancer. Her story of resilience & determination serves as an inspiration to many, and she continues to inspire others to live their dreams and never give up hope, no matter what challenges life throws your way!
